Compact Bone

Real World Example

Think about when you need to carry a fragile item, like an egg, while ensuring it doesn't break during transport. Just like you might wrap the egg in a protective shell or case to prevent it from cracking, your bones have a hard outer layer known as compact bone to protect the vulnerable interior. In this analogy, the protective case is like the compact bone, providing a sturdy and durable shield around the more delicate inner structures, much like how we protect fragile items to ensure their safety.
